Chapter 251 Concubine's Scheming
Liuli originally wanted to reprimand her sternly, but after drinking a sip of tea, she changed her mind.Although Hanxue looks like all the concubine servants, she has signs of restlessness, but compared with Ningshuang, she is really deeper.Since Liuli entered the door, she has been flattering herself, and every time Ningshuang does something, she doesn't touch a leaf. Is she really so clean here?Then he also wanted to find out her details, so he thought for a while and said, "You mean, she likes the general?"

Hearing that she didn't put on grandma's airs, Hanxue relaxed, and said: "I don't dare to say whether it's the kind of love between children, or the kind of love between brothers and sisters, but every time the big girl comes back , would ask if the general is there, and if he was, he would come to the Chaoqing Hall. And because the two families are relatives, the prince and his wife also liked her very much. I heard that at that time, they wanted to have a kiss Marriage, but later the Holy Majesty indicated marriage."

Speaking of this, she glanced at Liuli, as if she still had a deep meaning that was inconvenient to explain clearly.

Facing such provocation, Liuli was really speechless.Did she want to tease her to do something to Duan Wenhui, and cause dissatisfaction among all the people in Dingbei Palace?Or do you want to use her hand to wipe out this potential enemy?No matter what she thought, Liuli felt that such a method was too insulting to her mind.

"So what?" Liuli turned the cup in her hand, "Even if the general likes her, that's his freedom, isn't it? As wives and concubines, it's enough for us to take care of our own duties, and we don't need to worry about men's affairs." .”

"Grandma is right." Hanxue stood up, "But, grandma, don't you think it's strange? To say something to offend grandma, Ningshuang caused a catastrophe a few days ago, and the general and grandma had a rift because of it. Even if we don't Dare to say it, but I know it in my heart. Why does Miss Duan come to live in the mansion at this time? Grandma only knows that she is the mistress of the house, but has she never thought that there is such a thing as an equal wife say?"

flat wife?Liuli's eyebrows trembled.But, if Duan Wenhui wants to stay with Qi Yunhao long-term, isn't the only way to be a flat wife?Could it be that she, the eldest daughter of the noble family, would wrong herself to be his concubine?

Hanxue paused for a moment, then continued: "The concubine's words may not please you, but concubines and concubines are different from Ningshuang. I have seen grandma's behavior these days, and I admire her very much. It's all about finding an opportunity to express it, but the whole heart towards grandma is sincere. If the general and grandma have a quarrel over other things, it's fine. The husband and wife are in love every day, and they quarrel at the end of the bed, but it's because of this child The thing——as the general's own father, the prince will inevitably love his son. It just so happens that Miss Duan is always unwilling to get engaged, so it's clear what this means, isn't it?"

Liuli had to admit that Hanxue's words were somewhat reasonable, and she also knew that Qi Yunhao asked the imperial physician to prescribe a prescription for her contraception would sooner or later spread, and sooner or later King Dingbei would know about it.As a father-in-law, of course he hopes to have grandchildren as soon as possible, so under the circumstances of their mutual consent, it is of course the best way to establish a flat wife.How can Liuli express dissatisfaction with this?In this way, since Yunhao has a legitimate child, Duan Wenhui, who was born in a noble family, doesn't have to be petty to her.It's really the best of both worlds.

"Of course, these are all concubine's conjectures, and concubine can't bear to have grandma's status threatened, so she boldly said it. If there is a slip of the tongue, grandma, for the sake of concubine's sincerity, don't blame maid concubine."

Seeing that she was silent, Hanxue immediately changed the subject.

Liuli glanced at her, put the tea bowl away, twitched the corners of her mouth, and said, "It's hard for you to have such a heart. I usually claim to be strong, but I never thought about it. Thanks to you for reminding me. It seems that I It's still not enough to be alone, in the future, if you think of anything, just tell me more."

Hanxue hurriedly bowed her body and said, "It's a maidservant's honor to be able to share her worries and work for grandma!"

Liuli pulled her up, and said: "I'm about to pass here, go back first, I'll pass on to you if there's something to do." Although she wanted to explore the details, she couldn't say too much, too much is too late, and it's easy to be used in reverse.

However, even though she knew that Hanxue was suspected of being provocative, the word Ping Wife still took root in her mind. There were also precedents for Ping Wife among the rich and powerful in this dynasty. There is no way to do it. She doesn't know whether the king of Dingbei thought of giving Qi Yunhao an equal wife, but it is obvious that under the promotion of the Mei family, this will be a trend.

Of course, Duan Wenhui would not refuse, people like them who would not give up until they reached their goals would never have any other thoughts in their eyes.

Of course, it is not as serious as what Hanxue said at the moment, and there is only seven or eight points of her mind to pick things up in her words.But if the matter really came to this point, should she let it go, or ask to give up her position, or should she defend it to the death just for the empty name?

Before she could figure it out, Rui'er walked in. "The time is almost here, grandma should go to Rongxi Hall."

Liuli looked at the hourglass, and hurried into the room to adjust her makeup again.Because of the well-known past between Duan Wenhui and her husband, her existence seems a little awkward. You dress up grandly, and others think you have an overpowering intention, and you dress plainly, which makes people feel Shabby, not worthy of the identity of the big grandmother.Liuli thought for a while, and added a golden phoenix hairpin to her usual attire, and replaced the plain clothes with hazy colors.

When they arrived at Rongxi Hall, Mrs. Mei was already drinking tea with Qi Mulan.Yuhua hasn't come yet.

After Liuli sat down, she waited for a while, and then heard someone coming from the front door say: "Mrs., Grandma, the two cousins ​​have already arrived at the Chuihua Gate!"

Mrs. Mei nodded, and hurriedly said: "Xiangying, go and meet me!"

Xiangying is another escort of Mei's family. She was originally a dowry, and she is also a nanny, but her behavior is much more stable than Gu Nai, so she is in charge of most of the things in Mei's room on weekdays. .Letting her go to meet Duan Wenhui and the others at this moment was of course a courtesy from Mrs. Mei.

After a while, I saw several soft sedan chairs being carried in from outside, passing through the courtyard and stopping at the porch, a slender and delicate lady walked out of the sedan chair first, it was Duan Wenhui, the eldest daughter of the Zhongyonghou Mansion, and the sedan chair at the back came down. Of course it is Duan Wanru, my aunt's daughter.Yuhua got out of the sedan chair from the back, and immediately went up with a smile to greet the sisters of the Duan family to come into the house.Mei stood up to welcome them out with a smile, and said to them, "I've been looking forward to you for a long time, and if I don't come to the house for a few months, my aunt will miss you."

The sisters of the Duan family smiled and saluted, and said: "It's hard for the second cousin to go out to greet her. It's not like she hasn't been here before. Auntie is too polite."

Only then did Liuli realize that Yuhua actually went to the gate to meet them.It seems that these two cousin girls really have a lot of face!
In fact, Duan Wenhui is the daughter of Zhongyong Hou Shizi, and Mrs. Qi's wife married the son's younger brother, but she often came and went when she was a child, and the two families got to know each other well. Shi is an aunt.

Liuli only regards herself as an accompanying guest today, and with the matter with Qi Yunhao, she has never been in the mood to stay in the main courtyard.Coming out today is the etiquette among Quan Yiquan's relatives, and he will go back to the room after sitting down for a while, so he didn't take the initiative to go forward.

Duan Wenhui glanced at Mei's side, his eyes fell on Liuli, and he said with a smile: "This one, of course, is the eldest cousin?"

Liuli smiled and said, "Young lady Biao is polite."

Duan Wenhui looked her up and down, then smiled, and after that, Mrs. Mei took her with one hand and Duan Wanru with the other, and walked into the house. No one thought of saluting her, the eldest grandmother who was also a wife after all, and introduced her to her. Introduction or something.

Liuli entered the room and sat in her original seat.Mei and the sisters of the Duan family exchanged a few words, then looked over at Liuli: "Is Cousin's room ready?"

Liuli said: "It's packed, just wait for the two girls to come in and live."

Mei smiled and said to Duan Wenhui: "Your house was cleaned up by Grandma. It's in the courtyard of Miss Lan. Although it's not as big as the room you lived in before, it's spacious. Look back and see if there's anything missing. What's the matter?" , you go to the front yard to find grandma."

Duan Wenhui raised her lips to Liuli: "Please trouble my sister-in-law."

Liuli smiled and said, "They're all relatives, why are you talking about this?"

Mei looked at her with a smile, but in fact there were multiple meanings in her words, Liuli felt very helpless about being forced into a struggle like this, and she was even more speechless about Duan Wenhui's pretentious generosity.Now almost everyone in the world knows about the incident between her and Qi Yunhao. I don't know what's the point of her pretending to be so gentle and kind?Is it to highlight Liuli's reputation as a shrew?
In fact, Duan Wenhui herself has not had any special thoughts so far. In Liuli's heart, she is just a poor woman who cannot be loved. As for her character, to be honest, she has not yet reached the level that makes Liuli despise her. the point.Of course, this is all based on the fact that there is no future between Liuli and Qi Yunhao. Anyway, Qi Yunhao doesn't regard herself as someone who will spend her life together in her heart, so why does she care so much about them?If Liuli and Qi Yunhao happen to be in love, then her attitude towards her will be completely different, she will definitely regard her as an enemy who covets her territory, and she will never let her take advantage of it.

Still want to get close to her man?dream!
However, the situation is different now, let her go!It's best to climb directly on Qi Yunhao's bed, and the two of them will become a joke inside and outside the court, and let the saliva of the general public drown them!At that time, like her grandfather, she will find a place where no one knows to live in seclusion, how happy she is!

Therefore, when she found out that Duan Wenhui ignored her intentionally or unintentionally, and performed all kinds of etiquette to her in a serious manner, she only felt it was ridiculous, but did not respond.Sometimes, she is not so competitive.
